the consistent lines spilling onto Ella in the afternoon was a good reminder as to why Houston is so ****ing fat.

Hoedup. There are Shipley's all over town, but that's the only one people always talk about having a line. What's so special about the Ella location?

Is it just one of those Northside things where like 3 generations of the family grew up in the same house, went to Waltrip, and were raised to eat Shipleys for breakfast and Barbecue Inn for dinner?

Also, the food is awful. If you are doing to support corporate breakfast-based items, please go to Dunkin'

I've ventured to and fro.

The situation, in detail:

- Politics: warned - multiple times - not to discuss a certain very powerful country very close to my ancestral home of Aleppo, Syria. Sad, because I'm quite informed about their activities.
I was also a major contributor to their dearly departed Q thread, and called my shot in 2018, which was IMO fully vindicated by the HBO doc. I remain upset it was nuked.
- Religion: no real issues. Props to their mod.
- Food and Spirits: Mods DO NOT appreciate my opinions.
- East Texas: no real issues. Props to their mod.
- Metroplex: minor issues, quickly resolved.
- Houston: I was a top contributor to the high end watch thread, and yet was warned off. I've complied, although I've since bought some excellent Bulova pieces that were not analyzed there, as they should have been.
- Aggies Only: I've done very well there, and yet the board has nearly expired. Sad.
Aggieland: I abandoned it.
- General: I was a major contributor when the board was actually good, meaning before 2010.
- Rivalries: Major contributor to the 2 jorts analysis threads, yet not much else. I didn't even try to hang with the in-crowd when it was good, meaning before 2015.
Outdoors: minor contributions, and generally intimidated by the high level of knowledge there.

My only perma, nearly 2 years ago, was reversed in less than 24 hours. The mod made an error; the situation was quickly corrected.

If only a concerned citizen would've interceded and convinced the owners not to sell this could have all been avoided. Where is the hero we need in a situation like this to save another chain restaurant from themselves?

Dunkin Donuts is opening a store practically across the street front the Ella Shipley store. Bold move.
